Ben, I've just seen a discussion on an internal mac users mailing list talking about issues getting NFS to work with Snow Leopard. If you are using an autmounter, try: "open up a terminal and type 'sudo automount -vc'." That flushes the automount cache. If that doesn't help, then: What are your shares on the server? Try the 'share' command to get them. Do you know if you are trying NFSv3 or NFSv4 mounts? Is mountd running? server: ps -ef | grep mountd server: rpcinfo -p I'd suspect that either mountd was not running or your name server is slow to respond. Are you using NIS, DNS, or /etc/hosts? > /var/adm/messages doesn't seem to show any NFS errors. > I've restarted the server and I get the same problem.
